## Overview

WestFax is a cloud fax and document processing solutions provider serving health insurers, life insurance carriers, and claims processors. The company operates a HIPAA-compliant platform built on the largest time-division multiplexing fax infrastructure globally, with multiple data centers supporting high-volume batch document exchange for regulated industries.

The platform delivers cloud fax, fax-to-email, print-to-fax, and REST/SOAP API integrations for enterprise workflow systems. In February 2026, WestFax expanded into AI-powered intelligent document processing with the launch of WestFax Comprehend, which applies optical character recognition and FHIR-aligned classification models to automate medical document intake, extraction, and routing for health insurers and claims operations.

Founded in 1999 and headquartered in the Denver metro area, WestFax is a bootstrapped, privately held company. Its customer base includes enterprise organizations such as McKesson, Blue Cross Blue Shield, and the American Medical Association, with documented integrations across major EHR platforms and cloud storage providers.
